Change Default Git Location of Xcode

When I build a project with Xcode, the default git location is fine. I'm able to initiate source control through Xcode like normal. But when I build sessions from other Apps, such as the Projucer, I can't use the custom git location, as it doesn't see all the files. I need to manually create the first git commit in the correct location with:

git init
git add . 
git commit -m "First Commit"

After this, Xcode sees the git repo and as is able to take off from there, and I dont have to use command line after that.

My question is, is there a way to set the default location of git within Xcode? Avoiding commands? Also, are there any visual ways to gitignore files through Xcode? Thank you.

As illustrated in Setting up a git repository in XCode for a pre-existing project, you would still still those Git commands.

The "Git Create Project" of XCode 7 and 8 would still create a .git in the default location (<root of the project>/.git)
